In the title compound, (C(21)H(22)N)(2)[AuCl(4)]Cl, the Au(III) atom adopts a square-planar coordination geometry defined by four chloride ions. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the organic cations and the uncoordinated chloride ion.

The title compound {systematic name: 1-[(1R,4aS,10aR)-7-isopropyl-1,4a-dimethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,9,10,10a-octa-hydro-phenan-thren-1-yl]-N,N-di-methyl-methanaminium chloride ethanol monosolvate}, C22H36N(+)·Cl(-)·C2H6O, was synthesized from dehydroabietylamine by N-methyl-ation with formaldehyde/formic acid and transformation into the hydro-chloride. The de-hydro-abietyl moiety exhibits the usual conf...

Chloride-incorporated dodecavanadates show two distinct structures of the monoprotonated-form [HV12O32(Cl)](4-) (closed-V12) with a spherical closed-structure and the opened-form [V12O32(Cl)](5-) (opened-V12). The reaction of closed-V12 with a stoichiometric amount of ethylenediamine drives the structure transformation reaction to opened-V12, quantitatively. From time dependent observations of ...

We reported previously (Kataoka, T., Muroi, M., Ohkuma, S., Waritani, T., Magae, J., Takatsuki, A., Kondo, S., Yamasaki, M., and Nagai, K. (1995) FEBS Lett. 359, 53-59) that prodigiosin 25-C uncoupled vacuolar H+-ATPase, inhibited vacuolar acidification, and affected glycoprotein processing. In the present study we show that prodigiosins (prodigiosin, metacycloprodigiosin, and prodigiosin 25-C)...

The title compound, C(6)H(6)Cl(2)N(+)·Cl(-)·H(2)O, is composed of discrete cations, choride anions and water mol-ecules, which are connected through N-H⋯Cl, O-H⋯Cl and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding. Two H atoms of the positively charged -NH(3) (+) group have two chloride acceptors and the other one has the O atom of the water mol-ecule as acceptor. The chloride anions form hydrogen bonds with two H at...

The title salt, C3H6N3S2 (+)·Cl(-)·H2O, crystallized with two organic cations, two chloride anions and two water mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The methyl C atoms deviate from their respective bound ring planes by 0.081 and 0.002 Å. In the crystal, the components are connected via N-H⋯O, N-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to (100). The sheets are linked into bil...

The outer hair cell (OHC) underlies mammalian cochlea amplification, and its lateral membrane motor, prestin, which drives the cell's mechanical activity, is modulated by intracellular chloride ions. We have previously described a native nonselective conductance (G(metL)) that influences OHC motor activity via Cl flux across the lateral membrane. Here we further investigate this conductance and...

The cellular basis of cystic fibrosis (CF) is a defect in a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-activated chloride channel (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) in epithelial cells that leads to decreased chloride ion transport and impaired water transport across the cell membrane. This study investigated whether it was possible to activate the defective chloride channel in cystic fibrosis...

In the title compound, C(6)H(8)NO(2) (+)·Cl(-), inter-molecular O-H⋯Cl and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are observed in which each chloride anion links three adjacent cations into a hydrogen-bond network.

Ionic liquids (ILs) are a class of salts that are expected to be used as a new source of solvents and for many other applications. Our previous studies revealed that selected ILs, structurally related organic cations, are eliminated exclusively in urine as the parent compound, partially mediated by renal transporters. This study investigated the inhibitory effects of N-butylpyridinium chloride ...
